Recently, electrogastrography (EGG) has received more and more attention. While gastroenterologists are interested in its clinical applications, concerns remain regarding the reliability and analysis of the EGG and the correlation between the EGG and gastric motility. The aims of this paper are to address these concerns and to review the potential clinical applications of the EGG. The following areas are discussed, based on the literature and our own experience with EGG: the refined method for the measurement of the EGG, the advanced techniques for quantitative analyses of the EGG, the reliability of the EGG in measuring gastric myoelectrical activity, the correlation between the EGG and gastric motility, and applications of the EGG in clinical gastroenterology.
最近，胃电图（EGG）受到了越来越多的关注。虽然胃肠病学家对其临床应用感兴趣，但对于EGG的可靠性和分析以及EGG与胃动力之间的相关性仍存在担忧。本文的目的是解决这些担忧，并综述EGG的潜在临床应用。基于文献和我们自己对EGG的经验，讨论了以下几个方面：EGG测量的改进方法、EGG定量分析的先进技术、EGG在测量胃肌电活动方面的可靠性、EGG与胃动力之间的相关性以及EGG在临床胃肠病学中的应用。
